"His name is Cheng Zhengxiong, and he's a big shot."
Mo Hongru replied.
"Cheng Zhengxiong?"
Ye Chen muttered to himself, "I've never heard of this person before."
“Xiao Chen, the reason why Cheng Zhengxiong is so powerful is not because of his own strength. At most, he just has more henchmen. The reason he is so powerful is because he has a powerful backer.”
Mo Hongru added.
Over the years, Mo Hongru has gotten to know many wealthy and powerful people. If it's just about dealing with Cheng Zhengxiong, he has nothing to fear.
However, Cheng Zhengxiong's powerful backer was someone Mo Hongru couldn't afford to offend.
"oh?"
"A powerful backer? What powerful backer?"
Ye Chen asked in surprise.
“Cheng Zhengxiong’s backer is Bern Halifax, the president of the Asia-Pacific region of Felix Group, a Fortune 500 company ranked among the top 100. Moreover, there are rumors that Bern Halifax’s position will be promoted again in a while.”
Mo Hongru answered.
"Felix Group?"
Ye Chen had never heard of this company before.
"The Felix Group is not well-known in my country and does not have much business. The Felix Group mainly does international business and is very famous internationally. Every time the world's top 500 companies are re-ranked, the Felix Group can always be in the top 100."
Mo Hongru revealed the terrifying nature of the Felix Group.
"A sure thing in the top 100?!"
Ye Chen was somewhat surprised.
They consistently rank among the top 100 of the world's top 500 companies, making them a force to be reckoned with!
This is something that even Ye Chen's Kaiyun Group might not be able to achieve.
No wonder Uncle Mo came to beg me.
“I will send someone to investigate Cheng Zhengxiong’s big backer, Bourne Halifax.”
Ye Chen nodded and made a mental note of the name.
"Uncle Mo, it's getting late. Let's eat and chat."
Ye Chen spoke.
Afterwards, the three of them went to Ye Chen's Wangjiang Pavilion to eat and chat.
After the meal, Ye Chen left on his own initiative, leaving the Mo family father and daughter alone to talk.
On his way back to the Tan Palace Villa, Ye Chen planned to send a message to have someone investigate Cheng Zhengxiong and his group. However, just as Ye Chen took out his phone, a message came through in the game.
【bite】
[Challenge issued: Help Uncle Mo solve his troubles and make Cheng Zhengxiong suffer tenfold punishment, so he remembers never to threaten others with his family.]
[Challenge Reward: 5% stake in the Porsche Group and membership on the Porsche Group Board of Directors]
Challenge Reward: 258 Experience Points
[Challenge Reward: 131 Mall Points]
"Porsche Group?"
Ye Chen muttered to himself.
Ye Chen is very familiar with Porsche, after all, he has quite a few Porsche models in his garages all over the country.
Ye Chen didn't know much about Porsche, so out of curiosity, he looked it up on his phone.
When Ye Chen saw the current market value of the Porsche Group and its latest ranking among global automakers, he was stunned.
Currently, the Porsche Group has a market capitalization of around 600 billion, ranking fifth among global automakers!
It's worth noting that Ferrari Group's market value is currently only two or three hundred billion, but Porsche's is twice that, or even more!
What's even more alarming is that the Porsche Group is a subsidiary that was only separated from the Volkswagen Group last year, and it is still part of the Volkswagen Group.
If a subsidiary that spun off from the parent company has a market value of a staggering 600 billion, then how terrifying must the market value of the parent company, Volkswagen Group, be?
A 5% stake in the Porsche Group is worth about 30 billion. Completing a challenge could easily earn you 30 billion, and you could even become a director of the Porsche Group. That's incredibly lucrative.
Ye Chen's previous "small goal" was to elevate Ferrari to the top five in the world, but now there may be another way to achieve it.
I've acquired the entire Porsche Group, which is currently ranked fifth in the world. Once it merges with Ferrari, I guess I'll have achieved my goal.
Not bad, not bad.
Not only the current Porsche Group, but also the Volkswagen Group behind it, which was once the world's number one, will all be theirs!
After exiting the game, Ye Chen sent a message, instructing his people to investigate Cheng Zhengxiong and Bourne Halifax, as well as their specific relationship.
On the other hand, after a long internal struggle, Hu Mingxuan, the spy hidden in Ye Shen's Invincible Supercar Club, decided to secretly contact his boss, Ye Xiong, to claim credit for himself.
With anticipation, Hu Mingxuan used the phone number he shared with Ye Xiong to call him.
"Didn't I tell you not to contact me unless it's something important?"
The call connected, and Ye Xiong's reprimanding voice came from the other end.
At this moment, Ye Xiong was very dissatisfied, fearing that the spy he had painstakingly cultivated would be discovered by Ye Chen.
"Boss, please don't be angry. Listen to me, I not only successfully infiltrated Ye Chen's inner circle, but now Ye Chen greatly admires and values me. He even made me a member of Ye Chen's Invincible Supercar Club..."
Hu Mingxuan quickly defended himself.
"Oh, really?"
Ye Xiong's tone softened, which was a pleasant surprise.
Unexpectedly, Ye Chen trusted Hu Mingxuan from the very beginning and even admired him.
"Boss, I think if I serve Ye Chen a few more times and do a few more things for him, Ye Chen will consider me a confidant."
Hu Mingxuan made a very confident guess.
"That would be even better."
Ye Xiong was overjoyed. Hu Mingxuan had not disappointed him and was already becoming Ye Chen's confidant.
This speed is acceptable.
Ye Chen is also a fool. It seems I overestimated him before. He actually believed Hu Mingxuan, the undercover agent, so quickly.
"Didn't you say that if you do a few more things for Ye Chen, he'll consider you a confidant? Well, you'd better hurry up and become Ye Chen's confidant sooner, the better it will be for our plans."
Ye Xiong gave the order.
"You need to keep an eye on things and see if there's anything you can help Ye Chen with, and take those things on your behalf."
"If you can't finish it, you can come to me. I'll help you finish it for Ye Chen or resolve these issues so you can become Ye Chen's confidant as soon as possible."
Finally, in order to make Hu Mingxuan Ye Chen's confidant as soon as possible and to get access to Ye Chen's core secrets, Ye Xiong even offered to help Hu Mingxuan solve problems for Ye Chen.
